Exactly... that was the biggest handicap on my '98, IMHO.

If you wanted to do it the hard way and are pretty good at fabricating you could pull the cab and sheetmetal and stick it on the Cummins truck.

What would be hard about that? They should be the same.

The tranny should be an easy swap. My V-10 had the same part numbers on the tranny as my diesel does. I also had the same tachometer in my V-10, so I believe the TC is the same, too. 'Course, my V-10 was a 2001, and my Cummins is a 2001.5, so maybe the same year makes a difference?? Besides, if people figured out how to stick a 440 or 426 hemi into little Dodge A-bodies, I think he could figure a way to ge the trucks swapped.
